#49 - Yoga Farts, Crazy Sweat, and Weight Concerns with Bernie Salazar
I've been helping my friend, former chronic dieter, and former "winner" of The Biggest Loser Bernie Salazar practice Body Kindness for nearly two years. (It's a process, folks!) Bernie has been stepping on the scale again and asking his doctor about his weight. He's looking for some advice from me. We spend a big chunk of this episode getting to the core of his concerns. He wants to have more energy for his daughter and he doesn't put the time into his self-care he wants to or he thinks he "should". We disentangle the "inner critic voice" from the "caregiver voice" so Bernie can stay focused on his well-being and not his body shape. Tune in to hear how I help him reframe his experiences into actionable, compassionate choices in line with his values. Then toward the end, you'll hear us both "go off" on a couple people who have been shaming folks on social media. I called it bullying and abuse. Should I have gotten that mad? Yep. And you just might get mad at it too. Get in touch with us: Rebecca@BodyKindnessBook.com Bernie@BodyKindnessBook.com --- You can subscribe to Body Kindness on iTunes and Stitcher. Enjoy the show?
